Ett vattenskyddsområde vad är det egentligen? Jo, runt om i Sverige finns det idag områden med speciella förhållanden som är skapade för att skydda vårt grundvatten. Dessa områden har speciella regler som måste följas. Reglerna är enormt viktiga och reglerar bland annat lantbruken inom dessa områden gällande hantering och användning av kemikalier. Olika dispenser för användningen finns även inom oThis study investigates the relationship between the use of pesticides within Ängelholm Municipality’s largest water protection area and the levels of these substances in the drink-ing water. With a growing population and modern lifestyle, society has developed a de-pendency on continuous food production, which in turn has led to increased use of pesti-cides to ensure stable harvesters. This can h

Svenska kommuner befinner sig just nu i en ansträngd ekonomisk situation med både brist på ekonomiska resurser och personal. Samtidigt råder det en efterfrågan på bostäder och i 180 av 290 svenska kommuner råder det ett underskott på bostadsmarknaden. Till följd av den begränsade resurstillgången måste kommunerna därmed prioritera vilket innebär att de måste fördela sina resurser till det som anseSwedish municipalities are currently in a constrained economic situation with a shortage of both financial resources and personnel. The municipalities hold a zoning monopoly, and due to the limited financial resources they have to prioritize within their physical planning to ensure they allocate their resources on what is most important. The aim of this thesis is to create an understanding of how

In central Budapest, when the city of Pest was developing, urban policy led to small plots built on all four sides mak- ing up the larger neighborhood block structures. Each small lot was centered around its even smaller courtyard, lead- ing to a myriad of small open spaces with little sunlight or activity. Many of these plots today have fallen into disrepair, becoming parking lots or unused p

This thesis investigates buyer preferences in the procurement of Internationally Transferred Mitigation Outcomes (ITMOs) under Article 6.2 of the Paris Agreement, which facilitates international cooperation through carbon markets. As ITMO markets are still in the early stages of development, uncertainties regarding regulatory frameworks, environmental integrity, and procurement strategies have eme

The development of artificial intelligence has led to significant advancements across various fields but is has also introduced considerable challenges. One such challenge is the emergence of so-called deepfakes, which are realistic, yet fabricated images or videos generated by artificial intelligence. A large propor-tion of deepfakes today are sexual in nature, most of which depict women without

The aim of this thesis was to analyze and compare the effects of various types of speed-reducing measures (speed humps, raised pedestrian and cycle crossings, dynamic speed bumps, and combined solutions) on vehicle speeds and traffic safety on selected streets in Helsingborg, Sweden. The study focused on residential streets, school zones, and main roads with different traffic environments. The met

A high-throughput method for the fabrication of ordered arrays of Au nanoparticles is presented. It is based on pulsed electrodeposition into porous anodic alumina templates. In contrast to many synthesis routes, it is cyanide-free, prior separation of the alumina template from the aluminium substrate is not required, and the use of contaminating surfactants/capping agents often found in colloidal

Introduction: Acute lower limb ischemia (ALI) is a life and limb threatening event often affecting patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Little is known about how T2DM affects the risk of adverse events in patients revascularized for ALI. This study aimed to investigate if there were differences in major outcomes between ALI patients with and without T2DM. Methods: Between 2010 and 2014,

BackgroundMonogenic insulin resistance (IR) includes lipodystrophy and disorders of insulin signalling. We sought to assess the effects of interventions in monogenic IR, stratified by genetic aetiology.MethodsSystematic review using PubMed, MEDLINE and Embase (1 January 1987 to 23 June 2021). Studies reporting individual-level effects of pharmacologic and/or surgical interventions in monogenic IR

Att aktieägare skriver aktieägaravtal är vanligt förekommande i svenska aktiebolag och då framförallt i mindre, privata bolag. I aktieägaravtalet kan man avtala om bland annat rösträttsbegränsningar och ägarförhållanden. Den allmänna uppfattningen i Sverige har sedan länge varit att aktieägaravtal endast är obligationsrättsliga mellan avtalsparterna, och därmed aldrig kan binda aktiebolaget. Ett a

In the 1940-ies curtain walls were introduced, i.e. brick walls that do not have any bearing function but served as a front material. Horizontal reinforcement was used in this kind of walls, partly over and under openings or, in undisturbed wall fields, every 5-6th bed joint. In this work the tensile bond strength of mortar joints repaired with an injection tool and a manual method respectively is

Event är korta tidsintervall som skiljer längre episoder med stabila oceaniska förhållanden från varandra. När cirkulationen i världshaven tillfälligt stängs av under ett event förändras fauna- och bergartssammansättningen, och även isotopförhållandena. Målet med detta arbete har varit att utröna hur de sensiluriska brachiopoderna reagerade på det globalt kända Lau Event. På Gotland omfattar det lThe impact of the Ludfordian Lau Primo-Secundo Event on brachiopods from Gotland has been investigated. About 12 000 individuals were identified from five samples. The results are supplemented by an extensive literature study. On Gotland, the Lau Event spans the Botvide Mbr (uppermost När Fm, upper Hemse Group) and the Eke Fm. It caused extinctions, faunal, sedimentary and isotopic changes. Conodo

Begreppet adaptation to the adverse effects of climate change är relativt nytt in internationell miljörätt. Begreppet adaptation är inte definierat i UNFCCC. Den här uppsatsen analyserar adaptation i ljuset av begreppet reparation i internationell sedvanerätt. Uppsatsen undersöker vad begreppen adaptation och reparation har gemensamt. Kan adaptation i UNFCCC ses som en möjlig utveckling eller förlThe concept of adaptation to the adverse effects of climate change is relatively recent in international environmental law. Adaptation is not defined in the UNFCCC. This paper attempts to address adaptation in the UNFCCC from the perspective of reparation under customary international law. It investigates what the concepts of adaptation and reparation have in common. Could adaptation in the UNFCCC

This is an essay about the reconciliation process in Guatemala its focus is on investigating the strategies used and their results. The theoretical framework consists of reconciliation-theory with truth and justice as central concepts. The method used is a combination of abductive and theory consuming method with a qualitative approach that allows an in-depth study, which is necessary to understan
